Chapter 3 Land

On the banner of the temple gate are three splendid characters: Bogong Temple.

Other words.

It is a land temple dedicated to the god of the land.

Couplets pasted on both sides in front of the main hall door:

The earth gives birth to all things,

The land can be a thousand auspicious.

Inside the main hall, it was visible to the naked eye that it was old, shabby, and covered with a thick layer of dust, and there was only a tattered offering table, which felt like it could be blown down by a gust of wind.

In front of the offering table, three futons are placed, which seem to be woven of wicker.

On the offering table, there were several plates, white porcelain bowls, candlesticks without candles, and an incense burner mixed with mouse droppings.

Most of the offerings on the plate are steamed buns, which are moldy and black.

The offerings placed in the bowl should be peaches, rotten and stinking.

Behind the offering table, against the wall, there is a clay statue standing with its hands in its hands, looking up at the sky at 40 degrees, covered with many cobwebs.

On the chest of the clay sculpture, I don't know who wrote two lines of graffiti small characters, which are also couplets:

There are temples and no monks sweeping the floor,

Incense is more candles and less moon lights.

Such a small temple, so dilapidated.

But Dian Wei stretched out his head and swept his gaze, but he was shocked.

I saw that on the futon in front of the offering table, there was a monster squatting, with a skin color as white as bones, only one meter tall, and an exaggerated head bigger, bigger than the body.

The huge head pressed against the thin neck, extremely twisted and weird.

There seemed to be a human face on the head, full of wrinkles, hollow and gloomy eyes, no eyebrows, rosacea, and a crooked mouth.

The head is also covered with scabies, dense, and it looks very oozing.

This ghost look is already very scary, but what is even more terrifying is that its body is impressively translucent.

If I have to use an analogy, this monster is like Gollum in Lord of the Rings, a fat version.

"Ghosts?!"

Dian Wei's heart was awe-inspiring, where is this special chance, it is clearly a hell of a day.

He didn't think about it, he turned around and ran.

"Young man, can you see me?" Suddenly, an old and depressed voice came.

Dian Wei tightened his body, twisted his head halfway and slowly turned back.

The monster was looking over, its eyes fell on Dian Wei's face, and when it saw Dian Wei turn his head and look at it with focused pupils, it suddenly became excited and said, "You can hear my voice too, can you?" ”

Dian Wei's Adam's apple twitched, trying to keep his composure.

This ghost thing is spitting and should be able to communicate.

Also, it's broad daylight, and ghosts can't run into the sun, right?

Dian Wei took a step back, stood in the sun, and said boldly: "You are, where is sacred?" ”

This question is out.

The monster was even more excited, and said: "I don't dare to be sacred, the little god is just a local land lord, surnamed Zhang Wende." ”

"Land lord, just you?" Dian Wei blinked, and the surprise was all written on his face.

Dare to love this ghost thing is the owner of this land temple!

In Journey to the West, the "old man of the land" who was called by Brother Monkey and came and went immediately appeared in front of him.

"It's a wonderful world."

Dian Wei was amazed in his heart, and immediately thought, if there is a land god here, then the gods and Buddhas of the heavens are also ......

At this time, the land lord took a few steps forward, looked at Dian Wei carefully with empty eyes, and said with a trembling face: "Strange, you are obviously just a mortal, how can you see the 'Yin God'?" ”

Dian Wei didn't know what was going on.

Also, what is the Yin God?

He groaned and said, "Land Lord, yesterday a monster ate the whole village. ”

With that, he stared at the land lord to see how he reacted.

Since you are a piece of land, there are monsters running into your territory to spread wild, so you won't be indifferent.

When the land lord heard this, he sighed: "That's a 'Bodhisattva', alas, the Bodhisattva wants to eat people, and the little god is powerless to stop it!" ”

"What do you say, Bodhisattva?" Dian Wei was stunned, thinking that he had misheard, "Bodhisattva, cannibalism? ”

"What does a bodhisattva eat if he doesn't eat people?" The land lord asked rhetorically, "Also, you are just a mortal, how can you know what a bodhisattva is?" ”

Dian Wei was speechless, "Then, will the Bodhisattva come back?" ”

"No, he was just passing through here, and he should be a hundred thousand miles away by now." The land lord shook his head and sat down slowly, holding a giant baby's head on his head.

"What is your name, boy?" The land lord asked.

Dian Wei wondered in his heart, as a piece of land, would he not know which residents were on his territory?

But......

Judging by the situation, it seems that this land lord really doesn't know him.

"My name is Dian Wei." Dian Vello said in silence.

"Well, Dian boy, you showed up at the right time." The land lord nodded, "The little god was shaken apart by the roar of that bodhisattva, and the yin god was scattered, and he will soon die. ”

Another long sigh.

Dian Wei's eyes narrowed slightly, daring to love that this land lord was dying.

"I, Zhang Wende, was born a prodigy, began to practice martial arts at the age of eight, officially stepped into martial arts at the age of ten, ranked as the 'head of the sect' at the age of forty-seven, and became a 'walker' at the age of ninety-five, spanning the world for more than 100 years, and died at the hands of the enemy at the age of 209."

"After my death, I received the kindness of the Master, not only to keep the Yin God alive, but also to help me become a land lord, sit in a town, accept more than 100,000 people to pray with incense, and enjoy boundless blessings."

"Who would have thought that the good luck would not last long, and the master would also die at the hands of thieves, and his body and spirit would be destroyed. I lost my protection, the ancestral hall and temple were destroyed by the wicked, I was driven out of the city, wandering from place to place, and finally came to this ruined temple to survive. ”

"I never thought that a Bodhisattva would pass by here, and with a roar, it would shake me to a serious injury."

Speaking of this, the land lord looked at Dian Wei, "You must also feel the horror of the Bodhisattva, just the sound of his breathing will shake your seven orifices and bleed." ”

Dian Wei pricked up his ears to listen to the nagging of the land public.

Although he didn't understand much of it, he didn't ask much.

God knows if this dying landlord, in order to save the dog's life, will use any evil methods, such as seizing the house and the like.

"Dian Wei, the little god will not be long in coming." The land lord sighed and sighed, "You and I are destined, and the little god wants to send you a great creation." ”

Dian Wei immediately became vigilant.

The direction of this dialogue seems to be the standard plot of some bad dramas.

No kidding.

You and I are not related to each other, don't send this kind of pit thing to the big creation, don't trick me, I don't want to die so quickly.

The land lord opened his mouth and vomited out.

Crash!

Spit out a cloud of mucus from the mouth of the land male.

The land lord stretched out his hand and pulled twice in the slime, and suddenly a square seal was revealed.

"Dian Wei, can you see this?" Land Princess.

Dian Wei nodded, "A square seal." ”

The land lord nodded: "This thing is the divine seal of the land lord, and the person who holds this seal is the land god." ”

As he spoke, the land lord handed over the seal, "Dian Wei, the little god wants you to take over the seal of the god and become a piece of land." ”

Dian Wei was surprised when he heard this: "The land god, can you be casually?" Anyone can do it? ”

"Naturally not, you must hold the exclusive seal of the land god in order to become a land." The land is connected to the road.

Dian Wei is clear.

The land god is a priesthood, but in this position, he only recognizes the seal and does not recognize the person, and whoever holds the seal is.

"There are only two ways to become a land.

First, to accept canonization, this is how I became the land;

Second, inherit from the land god, and I choose you as the successor. ”

The land lord explained carefully, "Generally speaking, only the 'Yin God' can see the seal, so only the 'Yin God' is qualified to become the land god, but you seem to be born with different pupils, so you also have this qualification. ”

Dian Wei didn't dare to take it, and said cautiously: "Land lord, how can I be virtuous?" Moreover, there is no reactive power. ”

The land lord said the famous saying that the dead do not pay for their lives: "The little gods have something to ask for......"
